Martin shares how much has changed for him in just two weeks. When he last spoke, he was struggling deeply with addiction, but since then he has connected with case managers, gotten on medication, scheduled dental work, and begun the process of moving into housing. He’s been sober for 12 days, eating regularly again, and managing his diabetes more carefully. He describes how living on the streets made him unable to talk openly or “vent,” whereas now he feels supported.

He credits God with moving him toward change, saying he couldn’t sleep outside anymore. Martin emphasizes the importance of shelters and housing programs in Denver, pointing to places where people can access services, food, case management, and warmth. His testimony is filled with gratitude, determination, and a clear sense of hope for rebuilding his life.
